The statement came ahead of his performance Friday night in Lafayette, Louisiana. Cosby has continued his comedy tour throughout the country despite the accusations. The rest of his career hasn't held up as well. Netflix shelved Cosby's planned comedy special and NBC dropped the pilot it was working on with him.

For his own part, the comedian has rarely commented on the accusations, even at the height of the scandal. He has, instead, allowed his lawyer to speak for him and say he "does not intend to dignify" the accusations against him.

Back in November 2014, Cosby told Florida Today, "I know people are tired of me not saying anything, but a guy doesn't have to answer to innuendos. People should fact check. People shouldn't have to go through that and shouldn't answer to innuendos."

"I thank you, the theatre staff [at the Heymann Performing Arts Center], the event organizers and the Lafayette community for your continued support and coming to experience family fun entertainment," Cosby continued in his statement today. "Hey, Hey, Hey — I'm far from finished. Sincerely, Bill Cosby."
